You guys this is huge! So Eshmel will be customizable (as avitar units are usually), but for the 1st time in history, the skin tone will be customizable! I can finally be black in a Fire Emblem game! I can't wait! π€©π€©

Otakon was so much fun! Thank you everyone for the kind words on my cosplays & to those who attended my panel!
I don't reveal if a cosplay that I'm working on is a competition piece until like the week of the con or at the very least if my entry gets accepted (if it's juried)! It's less pressure on me! π
Debuting my Nyna cosplay from Fire Emblem Shadow Dragon at Day 1 of Otakon! π Feel free to say hi if you see me around! π Wig: Arda Venus Classic & ponytail (Champagne) & styled by me! Nyna cosplay made by me!
To add: I have partial facial blindness! Some faces I can recognize, but unfortunately for most I cannot & folks being shapeshifters in cosplay makes it harder! π If I don't recognize you then please don't be upset! It's best to say your username (especially mutuals). I can easily remember!
Here's my Otakon cosplay lineup for this weekend! Debuting Nyna on Fri & switching to Momo in the evening. Will be Nyna again on Sat! I'll try to catch the FE meetup! I'll also compete in the Hall Contest as her! Sun is Cure Berry! I'll also run a brand new panel on Sun! Feel free to stop by!
Years ago at NYCC, I was cosplaying Saya Kisaragi from Blood-C (a few months after the anime came out!). I encountered this guy who loved my cosplay! He asked for a pic & I posed. Then he went down on one knee & proposed to me.. Mind you that he looks like he's in his 40s & I just turned 18.. π§πΏββοΈ
on that note, give me your worst first encounter with an otaku. i'll go first: random con roommate via a bad friend. to introduce himself, he pulled out the mogudan rei doujinshi. we kicked him out when he tried to bring an underage girl from the rave. "could you guys just leave for a while?"

A reminder that Anime Matsuri is a dumpster fire!
New Gundam series is in the works! And apparently it's gonna be directed by Kenji Kamiyama (he directed Ghost in the Shell Stand Alone Complex!). This is gonna be interesting!

If you're a bully in the cosplay community, spreading false rumors, & hurting folks for no reason then you shouldn't be a judge. Along with having the craftmanship/performance skills to judge cosplay craftmanship/performance competitions, you also gotta be respectful & uplifting towards your peers!
Hi! I got a question for cosplayers & even those who wear Lolita fashion: Where do folks buy their petticoats, bloomers, & hoop skirts besides Amazon & Aliexpress? I usually make these things from scratch, but the reason I'm asking is to add to a future panel that I'll be running! Thank you! π
My Cure Berry skit is now posted on my YouTube channel! Feel free to check it out! youtu.be/Bvo4iToviM0?...
Cosplay definitely helped me with my public speaking skills & the confidence! Because if this, I'm able to do these things so much easier at work & in real life! Cosplaying & socializing with folks, along with running panels, competing, & even being a judge really helped!
*Cure Berry (Fresh Precure) Cosplay WIP Build* This was how I made my Cure Berry cosplay! It's a mostly stash build!
Goodbye Laura is really great so far! I love that the art is similar to 90s anime! The music is excellent! I look forward every week!
I'm home from Kitsune Kon! It was a honor judging the Masquerade, checking out everyone's works, & learning about the Wisconsin cosplay community! I had a wonderful time! π

Here at Day 1 of Kitsune Kon! I'll be at the autograph room (& as Clair) until 4pm! I have prints, stickers, buttons, & scrunchies! Be sure to come by!
Didn't this guy had the nazi tattoo?? I remember folks rightfully called him out saying that he shouldn't be a candidate, but a bunch of folks defended him. It shouldn't have to take a woman coming forward about being SAed by him for folks to stop showing support.

Hi everyone! This weekend is Kitsune Kon. I'll be one of the cosplay guest judges for the Masquerade on Sat & performing a brand new skit on Fri! I'll have a table at the autograph room! Here's my cosplay lineup & schedule! So excited for this weekend & seeing the Wisconsin cosplay community! π
Idk maybe I'm wrong, a weirdo & nitpicking, but I kinda don't like how now these days they show the new op/ed songs in trailers for upcoming new anime/season. Back in my day it would all be a surprise until the series/episode comes out. Sometimes articles would mention the song & artist prior,
